The Reputations of Socrates examines the uses and misuses of the name of that Athenian philosopher through the centuries. James W. Hulse argues that the central ethical message of Socrates as expressed in the Apology and Crito was distorted by generations of admirers and detractors from the time of Plato through the Enlightenment. Beginning in the eighteenth century, the process generating the central ideas of the paradigmatic gadfly began, and the development has continued to our time.

The Author: James W. Hulse is Professor of History at the University of Nevada in Reno. He is the author of books on the Communist International, on European socialism, and on the history of Nevada. Dr. Hulse has had a longstanding interest in Socrates as a social and ethical critic of his own and later times.
